☆ These two gambling stocks are undergoing impressive upside breakouts, according to the charts
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-26 | by ( David Keller | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

With former high-flying gambling stocks struggling so far in the fourth quarter, it's tempting to write off the entire group. MGM is only up about 10% since the August market low, and CZR is slightly above the S & P 500 in terms of performance. Over the same period, we can see that DraftKings Inc (DKNG) is up around 35%, doubling the return of the S & P 500. FLUT has now made a new 12-month relative high, as the strong performance in Q4 has outpaced other gambling stocks as well as the major equity benchmarks. As long as these two gambling stocks continue to demonstrate strong relative strength characteristics, we feel they represent excellent opportunities into year-end 2024.

CNN —President-elect Donald Trump announced Jamieson Greer as his pick to serve as the next US trade representative. Greer is no stranger to the role, having served as chief of staff to the trade representative during Trump’s first term, Robert Lighthizer. Trump has routinely referenced the passage of the USMCA trade agreement – which replaced the North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA – as a political victory and a highlight of his presidency. The threat of tariffs could also be used as a negotiation tactic, as Trump has pledged to renegotiate the USMCA. In that role, he has covered cases on topics including trade policy and negotiations and trade agreement enforcement.

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump tapped attorney Jamieson Greer on Tuesday to serve as the U.S. Trade Representative, a pick that will play an important role in the Republican's agenda to remake the international trading environment through tariffs. Greer, an attorney who has practiced international trade law, served as chief of staff to the USTR Robert Lighthizer during the first Trump administration. Trump said Greer's efforts under Lighthizer helped reverse decades of "disastrous trade policies." His focus, if confirmed by the U.S. Senate, will be to rein in the trade deficit and open up "export markets everywhere," among other things, Trump said. Lutnick will have "direct responsibility" for the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, he said last week.

On page 273 of her memoir, Angela Merkel admits she made a mistake. In a 2003 guest essay for The Washington Post, she attacked him for criticizing the impending American invasion of Iraq: “Schröder doesn’t speak for all Germans,” the headline ran. Strangely, the mistake Ms. Merkel acknowledges is not her support for the Iraq war, even though she now thinks the invasion was wrong. After three years away, Ms. Merkel is stepping back onto the world stage. But she isn’t ready to say “sorry.”

When COP29 President Mukhtar Babayev stepped to the podium at the closing meeting of the Baku climate summit on Sunday morning, hoping to clinch a hard-fought agreement on global climate finance, he carried with him two speeches.

An activist holds a globe balloon during a protest at the COP29 United Nations climate change conference, in Baku, Azerbaijan, on Nov. 21.
